Isn't the Sprint Center on the Missouri side?

Lets not confuse terms. "Grand State" is not having all classes of tournaments in one venue, but having the top two, three or four placers of each classification come together in a tournament. THAT would be great.

In regards to a single venue. . .I have seen a real downturn in the past 3, 4 years in how the tournament in Hays is run. Those in charge there just don't seem to care whether they do a good job or not; attitude is more "let's get this over with." I would be in favor of a central venue but there are no facilities IN Kansas that are big enough (floor space for mats, parking, seating, ancillary space for operations) to accommodate it. Alternate scheduling at a same site; Wed-Thu & Fri-Sat or some such, would need to be looked at.
